Types of Physical and Chemical Changes

Dr. Jarrett's video explores the differences between physical and chemical changes. Physical changes are temporary and do not create new substances, while chemical changes are permanent and result in new substances. Examples include ice melting, paper tearing, and chocolate breaking as physical changes, and paper burning, chocolate cooking, and rust forming as chemical changes. The video also includes a game to identify these changes.
